Chantry Farm in Orford is a 1942 watercolor by Puller, a social realism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows a small, old house with a wooden roof and stone walls. The front door is dark, with two windows on either side—one arched above. A low fence runs along the front, and a tree stands to the left. Behind it, a shed and another building peek out. The artist used soft colors and loose brushstrokes to keep it simple. The house looks quiet, like it’s been there for a long time. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
